SUMMARY:Violinist Kristin Lee and Pianist Jun Cho Perform American Sketches
DESCRIPTION:On Sunday\, October 26\, 2025 at 4pm\, violinist Kristin Lee – praised in The Strad for her “elegance” and “vivacity and electric energy” – will perform with pianist Jun Cho in a concert presented by The Phillips Collection (1600 21st Street NW). Coinciding with The Phillips Collection’s exhibition Out of Many: Reframing an American Art Collection (November 8\, 2025-February 15\, 2026)\, the program features music from Kristin Lee’s debut solo album\, American Sketches\, released on First Hand Records last year. \nOut of Many tells a dynamic story of how artists have imagined and depicted American identity. Like the exhibition\, American Sketches presents a panoramic view of America’s musical landscape\, reflecting the distinct and recognizable sound of American music and its rich history. The album and concert program also encompass Lee’s journey as an American as well as the journeys of the composers she has selected. The concert is part of Phillips Music\, the museum’s renowned Sunday Concerts series\, now in its 85th season. For over 80 years\, Phillips Music has presented exceptional young musicians alongside an international roster of acclaimed performers in the intimate\, art-filled setting of the museum’s Music Room. A cornerstone of Washington\, DC’s classical music scene\, the series continues to champion both classic repertoire and innovative new works. \nA violinist of remarkable versatility and impeccable technique\, Kristin Lee enjoys a vibrant career as a soloist\, chamber musician\, educator\, and artistic director. “Her technique is flawless\, and she has a sense of melodic shaping that reflects an artistic maturity\,” writes the St. Louis Post-Dispatch\, and The Strad reports\, “She seems entirely comfortable with stylistic diversity\, which is one criterion that separates the run-of-the-mill instrumentalists from true artists.” \nFor her American Sketches program at The Phillips Collection\, Kristin Lee will perform Four Southland Sketches by H.T. Burleigh (1866-1949); Non-Poem 4 by Jonathan Ragonese (b.1989); Sonata No. 2 “Poeme Mystique” by Ernst Bloch (1880-1959); But Not For Me (arr. Jeremy Jordan) by George Gershwin (1898-1937); Lament (arr. Jeremy Jordan) by J.J. Johnson (1924-2001); The Entertainer (arr. Jeremy Jordan); by Scott Joplin (1868-1917); Romance by Amy Beach (1867-1944) and Fantasy on Themes from Porgy and Bess (arr. Frolov) by George Gershwin (1898-1937). \nAmerican Sketches embraces the beauty of cultural diversity in the U.S. The album has a personal resonance for Lee. A native of Seoul\, Korea\, she emigrated to the U.S. at the age of seven. During her childhood\, playing the violin was a refuge from bullying and racism for Kristin – she moved to the U.S. not speaking any English\, and felt the violin became her voice. As a foreign-born citizen of the U.S.\, Lee was compelled to select repertoire for the album that would express her pride in the country she now calls her own. \nPerforming on a violin crafted in Italy in 1759 by Gennaro Gagliano\, in addition to her solo appearances\, Kristin Lee tours throughout the world as a member of New York’s Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center\, including in Italy\, Croatia\, Germany\, Taiwan\, and across the U.S. Always up for adventure\, at the Moab Music Festival in Utah\, Lee has performed in such unexpected places as rafting down the Colorado River\, in a natural rock grotto\, and in the magical landscape of the red rock canyons of the area. \nAs a soloist\, Kristin Lee has appeared with leading orchestras including The Philadelphia Orchestra\, St. Louis Symphony\, St. Paul Chamber Orchestra\, New Jersey Symphony\, Hawai’i Symphony\, Hong Kong Philharmonic\, Ural Philharmonic of Russia\, Korean Broadcasting Symphony\, Guiyang Symphony Orchestra of China\, and Orquesta Sinfonica Nacional of Dominican Republic. She has performed on the world’s finest concert stages\, including Carnegie Hall\, Avery Fisher Hall\, the Kennedy Center\, Kimmel Center\, the Metropolitan Museum of Art\, the Ravinia Festival\, the Louvre Museum\, the Phillips Collection\, and Korea’s Kumho Art Gallery. In 2026\, she makes her solo recital debut at Carnegie Hall performing her program American Sketches with pianist John Novacek. An accomplished chamber musician\, Kristin Lee is a member of the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center\, performing regularly in New York at Lincoln Center and on tour. \nIn addition to her prolific performance career\, Lee is a devoted educator. She has served on the faculty of the University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music and she has also been in residence with the Singapore National Youth Orchestra\, the El Sistema Chamber Music Festival of Venezuela\, and is a summer faculty member at Music@Menlo’s Chamber Music Institute. Lee is also the founding artistic director of Emerald City Music (ECM)\, a chamber music series that presents authentically unique concert experiences and bridges the divide between the highest caliber classical music and the many diverse communities of the Puget Sound region of Washington State. \nKristin Lee’s honors include an Avery Fisher Career Grant\, top prizes in the Walter W. Naumburg Competition and the Astral Artists National Auditions\, and awards from the Trondheim Chamber Music Competition\, Trio di Trieste Premio International Competition\, the SYLFF Fellowship\, Dorothy DeLay Scholarship\, the Aspen Music Festival’s Violin Competition\, the New Jersey Young Artists’ Competition\, and the Salon de Virtuosi Scholarship Foundation. \nBorn in Seoul\, Lee moved to the United States and studied under prestigious teachers including Sonja Foster\, Catherine Cho\, Dorothy DeLay\, Donald Weilerstein\, and Itzhak Perlman. Lee holds a Master’s degree from The Juilliard School. Lee’s violin was crafted in Naples\, Italy in 1759 by Gennaro Gagliano and is generously loaned to her by Paul & Linda Gridley. For more information\, visit www.violinistkristinlee.com.

SUMMARY:Simone Dinnerstein\, Jennifer Johnson Cano\, Katherine Needleman\, and Baroklyn
DESCRIPTION:On Wednesday\, October 29\, 2025 at 8pm\, GRAMMY®-nominated pianist Simone Dinnerstein – described by The New York Times as “colorful and idiosyncratic” – performs with Baroklyn\, the string ensemble she founded and directs\, in music from their recent Bach album Complicité. \nPresented by Library of Congress in the Thomas Jefferson Building – Coolidge Auditorium (10 1st Street SE) Washington D.C.\, the concert also features mezzo-soprano Jennifer Johnson Cano and oboist Katherine Needleman with Dinnerstein and Baroklyn \nSimone Dinnerstein is well known for her distinctive musical voice and for her expressive performances of music by J.S. Bach. She first came to wider public attention in 2007 through her recording of Bach’s Goldberg Variations\, reflecting an aesthetic that was both deeply rooted in the score and profoundly idiosyncratic. She is\, wrote The New York Times\, “a unique voice in the forest of Bach interpretation.” \nFor her most recent performance at the Library of Congress in February 2024\, Dinnerstein celebrated the 100th anniversary of George Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue with the U.S. Air Force Band. Her October 29 performance commemorates the centennial anniversary of the Library of Congress’s Concert Series. In celebration of the milestone\, Dinnerstein will begin the concert program performing a solo piano arrangement of Allein Gott in der Höh sei Ehr\, the same chorale that opened the LOC’s concert series in October 1925\, when it was performed on the organ. In a special letter to organist Lynnwood Farnam–the first musician to play in the Coolidge Auditorium–that the Library of Congress shared with Dinnerstein\, the message describes an approach to programming that is very similar to that which Dinnerstein applies to her performances – thinking of a concert feeling like a “service” (as it’s put in the letter)\, with one piece continuing into the next without applause. Dinnerstein and Baroklyn’s performance thoughtfully connects the concert series’ past with the present. \nLetter from the Library of Congress written by Music Division Chief Carl Engel  \nFollowing the opening of the concert\, the program will feature music from Complicité\, including Dinnerstein and Baroklyn’s arrangement of Bach’s chorale Herr Gott\, nun schleuß den Himmel auf\, BWV 617; Bach’s Keyboard Concerto in E Major\, BWV 1053; J.S. Bach: Der Leib war in der Erden\, BWV 161 (arr. Simone Dinnerstein and Baroklyn); Bach’s Cantata 170\, Vergnügte Ruh\, beliebte Seelenlust with continuo realization by Philip Lasser; and In the Air\, Lasser’s recomposition of Bach’s Air on the G String. \nThe deeply felt recording has been warmly-received by listeners – Complicité has already been streamed over 1 million times. Gramophone describes Dinnerstein’s performance as “full of life\, engagement and detail.” Of the new album\, Textura writes: “Not only are the performances terrific\, the music impresses for being more than faithful replications of existing scores but instead arresting re-imaginings that take Bach’s pieces into dynamic new realms.” Read the album press release here and listen here. \nDinnerstein says of her group Baroklyn\, “Baroklyn is a group of string players which I lead from the piano. We’re a community that shares the artistic vision that is most important to me\, that music should be creative and new. Rehearsal is important to us\, and I’ve been influenced by theater practice in which we listen to each other and pass musical ideas and phrases within the group. We rehearse and perform in a semi-circle around the piano and I rearrange parts to emphasize lines\, voices and imitative qualities to create a sense of dialogue.” The ensemble’s name is a portmanteau of Baroque and Brooklyn\, Dinnerstein’s home borough. \nCoinciding with the album’s release\, Dinnerstein spoke with NPR’s Morning Edition about the project\, as well as about her experience with performance anxiety and the way that playing with the sheet music on an iPad has resolved this for her. Of her work with Baroklyn\, she said\, “It’s like a sharing circle\, and you hear everybody’s individuality\, their individual sound as it gets passed around.” Listen to the NPR interview here. \nOf the album’s title\, Dinnerstein says\, “Complicité is a term that I first heard from my son\, who studied the teachings of the French theatre practitioner\, Jacques Lecoq. Three important ideas that Lecoq communicated to his students were le jeu (playfulness)\, complicité (togetherness)\, and disponsibilité (openness). I was so intrigued by these ideas\, and the different exercises that my son learned in order to cultivate these skills within ensemble acting\, that I decided to try a Lecoq approach with my own musical ensemble\, Baroklyn.”
